It probably isn’t top of mind, but you can make a big impact when deciding to do something interesting with your doors. Many people overlook this as part of their décor, but it’s the first thing people see when they come to your house, and they are all over your house. Let your personality shine with your design choices!
I just got some “After” photos from my LA House e-design clients. They wanted a “Kardashian chic” look, so we chose to paint their doors black and have white trim. Now they are looking very sleek and stylish. It was an easy update that really added drama to the space.
Some things to consider:
- Style, shape, and construction
- Materials: wood, glass, metal, fiberglass
- Mechanism: hinged, folding, sliding, swinging
- Stain or Paint colors
- Textures
- Contrast
- Handles and hardware
- Frame/Trim
- Windows/Louvres
- Doorsill
- Security
